"Why don't the Jews accept Jesus?" I've been asked that so many times. My usual reply is "Why haven't the Christians?" At least the Jews are waiting for the proper imperial restoration. The Messiah's coming to sit on DAVID'S THRONE—not Caesar's or "St. Peter's." The Anointed One's going to rule from JERUSALEM—not Rome! Israel's descendants composed God's Kingdom on earth, not the Assyrian Germans or Chaldean Catholics.
God's Word will become the law of the land (Earth's constitution) from Zion. Heavenly truths will flow from God's Temple in Israel, not from the Vatican in Europe (Ezek. 47:1). Israel's God is eager to share His information, distribute wisdom, and disseminate knowledge from the "CITY OF TRUTH" (Zech.8:3).
Mankind's about to enter the mikveh (ritual bath) of God’s Holy Spirit (that will wash the world), and come out new men and women! The Bible covers everything, and its plans include everyone—no one will be left out (Isa. 11:9). We'll be saved from our sins, no longer swept away by them!
But renegade Jews, who became avowed atheists, apostates or professing Christians, projected their PERVERSION on others and captivated whole countries with wrong ideas. Those false Messiahs have held men hostage to their thoughts, and imprisoned others with poisonous ideologies!
Thanks to Torah-Jews— those who follow and believe the Bible (as they understand it) — God has preserved for us the knowledge and identity of the seventh day Sabbath and holy days and when to keep them (Rom. 3:2).
It’s been said, and it’s true, "More than the Jew have kept the Sabbath, the Sabbath has kept the Jew." It’s an identifying national sign that the "Lost Ten Tribes" didn't keep (Ex. 31:17). Sabbath observance brings recognition.
God knew most of our Israelite ancestors, because of debilitating sins, would lose their minds and forget His ways, considering themselves Gentile (Deut. 28:64). We would be sifted through many nations, but finally come into our own (Amos 9:9). God promised to restore our identity, and offer us repentance, before and during our final captivity. He makes possible renewal amid decay.
Is the modern-day nation of Israel a completely fulfilled prophecy? How can it be when most Jews haven't returned home? Not to mention the other tribes. David hasn't been resurrected as king yet and the Messiah hasn't come. For now, Israel fulfills, in part, various biblical prophecies. For example, God promised to "save Zion and build the cities of Judah" (Ps. 69:35). He's faithfully done that by rewarding Jewish efforts (Isa. 61:4; Ps. 102:13-14). God has used the Jews to make the desert blossom as the rose and protected them during this conversion process, just as Moses requested (Deut. 33:7).
Zechariah chapters 12-14 foretold the Jews would again be living in their God-given capital of JERUSALEM, with their own rulers, and that the "United Nations" would oppose God's Word and Israeli sovereignty and fight against Christ's return to set things straight!
Zechariah reveals that the Jews (not Jewish imposters, contrary to anti-Semitic slander) would again be a FORMIDABLE MILITARY POWER in the Middle East with God working in and through and for them. And the scriptures speak of "THE CITIES OF JUDAH" in these last days (Isa. 40:1-3). They don't refer to them as "stolen Arab cities" or "occupied territories!" However, Israel is only a type of what will happen after the next holocaust.
The True Israel
The Bible does prophesy "the Time of Jacob’s Trouble" will occur just before Messiah comes and saves us out of it. The tragedy about to strike this time will target the English-speaking peoples. Technically, we're the only ones who can claim the name "Israel." God's blessing was passed down from Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob to JOSEPH. Jacob laid his hands upon Joseph's two sons (Ephraim and Manasseh) and said, "Let my name [Israel] be named upon them" (Gen. 48:16). Only Joseph's sons were collectively called ISRAEL.
"Rachel" is about to mourn for her children. The Jews were never her children! They're descendants of Judah, Leah’s son. Rachel bore Jacob two sons: Joseph and Benjamin (Gen. 35:24). The prophet Jeremiah foresaw "Rachel" beside herself with grief. She was overwhelmed by her sorrow: "Thus says the LORD: 'A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation and bitter weeping, Rachel weeping for her children, because they are no more" (Jer. 31:15).
Jacob's Trouble
The worst time in Earth's history is ahead! Dreadful days are fast approaching, and suffocating darkness is just around the bend! It's primarily the time of "Jacob's trouble." We've seen how it's the Anglo-Saxons (the sons of Joseph) who bear Jacob/Israel's name. We'll also bear the brunt of Europe’s wrath. "Rachel" SCREAMS in agony over our slaughter! It'll appear as if we've met our end….
But God comforts the afflicted women, and offers hope to men gone mad with misery, that we haven't passed the point of no return. Against every indication that we're finished, God will restore us to our ancient homeland (Jer. 31:16-20). He says we'll soon see how good we’ve had it, and how pampered and privileged we’ve been. We're not used to having our freedoms curtailed! We're unaccustomed to hunger, pain and deprivation. We're rich and spoiled!
Such terrifying prophecies should "scare us to death!" We ought to bury those ways that are bringing us to an early grave. A normal nation would suffer an anxiety attack and feel mental anguish over these horrors, but we stretch out and take it easy, preoccupied with trivial pursuits! We feed our faces and powder our noses, awash in luxury—but God sees our dirty laundry and warns us of a coming scourge! We don't want to hear it or believe it (Amos 6:3-7), so we
crank up the music and drown out God's words with liquor!
Jerusalem’s Fall
America's going to be on the run, Britain left high and dry! Europe won't give up until they've occupied our countries and rubbed our faces in the dirt! God says we've acted like a tramp, so Europe will trample us. We've lost our salt and have become good for nothing, so they'll walk all over us!
Despite false assurances from rabbis that Jerusalem will never fall again (because the process of redemption can't be stopped), Jerusalem is going to fall for peace! Zion will be taken and the Lion caged! The UN is going to violate Israel's agreement and break Europe's promise! In breach of their LYING GUARANTEES, Jewish homes will be broken into and their women raped!
Why? In part because the Nazi-Muslims continue to erase all archaeological evidence of any Jewish presence upon the Temple Mount. It’s an open secret, protested by too few. So since we obviously don't care for God's House, why should He care for ours? (Ps. 106:24; Hag. 1:4). We've looked the other way while they've defiled His holy place, so God will permit personal Jewish belongings to be stolen and family heirlooms looted, while half of Jerusalem is bled in broad daylight! The Old City's Jewish Quarter will be given no quarter by the fascist Europeans, who will empty them out and quarter "peacekeepers" instead (Zech.14:1-2).
The process of redemption can't be stopped, but it can be "interrupted" as part of that holy process. Biblical prophecy and history prove this fact. Such rebellious rabbis who state otherwise are like those stubborn religious leaders who gave ancient Judah a false sense of security that they were invincible because of the
Temple (Jer. 7:4). Their "lucky charm" didn't save them, any more than the Tabernacle did other sinners (Jer. 7:12, 14). And, more recently, those Torah-scholars and religious Jews who felt safe and secure in their European ghettos were dead wrong! They should have returned to Zion with the Socialists. Actually, they should have led the way!
Europe's New Crusade
Rome will again ravage the Holy Land! Abominable armies will quickly pollute "Palestine." The prophet Daniel warns of treacherous Jews who invite disaster: those secular politicians (who profane the public's trust) and informers (lacking intelligence) who eagerly conspire to sell out Israel for a price—although it'll cost
them their lives! (Dan. 11:30-32).
EUROPE'S NEW CRUSADE WILL BETRAY BOTH ARABS AND JEWS! It'll be launched under the guise of "peace." Egypt's going to be sacked (Dan. 11:42-45), Libya looted, and Ethiopia enslaved! The dark prince and wizard of war will send his "peace-keeping" troops to the Middle East to recapture Jerusalem for the Catholic faith and prepare for his arrival! He'll bless their mission and consecrate their carnage from his haunted house (built upon the bones of sorcerers).
The pope's going to cast his "love spell" over the whole world! Nations will fall under his influence and empty Jews will find themselves enchanted by his ideas. Some Israelis, flattered by attention and filled with an inflated sense of self-importance, will get seduced and swallow risky potions for "peace." They'll wake up too late! Israel's fatal attraction will kill us, and Judah's deadly liaison will curse them.
After World War II, the scraggly remnant of European Jewry scrambled for "Palestine." Others were sprinkled around the globe. The nation of Israel was born—again! God had prepared the way for that momentous day (May 15, 1948) by sending the British (Ephraim) to liberate the land from the Edomite Turks, just as prophesied. In November, 1917, the Balfour Declaration recognized the right of Jews to a homeland, and during Hanukkah in December, the Royal squadron flew over Jerusalem (Isa. 31:5) as General Allenby delivered Zion—without firing a shot! The British-Israelites ended the Gentile occupation! (Obadiah 18).
Presently, the Jews hold the Land in trust for all Israel (Rom. 3:2). Israel—not Ishmael or Germany or Spain—is the sole Defender of the Holy Land, possessor of every biblical right and chief executive officer. A number of Jews have returned, and undoubtedly a representative amount of the other tribes, but they only foreshadow the greatest Zionist movement yet to occur! We're getting close to another EXODUS (Jer.23: 7-8).

Only by those who don't know or reject the plain truth that the Bible prophesied so many revivals of Rome and that they've always taken place upon the continent of Europe, under the evil influence of the Roman Catholic Cult. The Babylonian Mystery religion has always misled the drunken politicians in this danse macabre; the Roman Catholic Church has always seduced leaders to engage in such an unholy union of Church and State to fulfill their fantasies.
The United States is Israelite in origin (specifically the Anglo-Saxon and Northwestern European Americans) - a part of the "Lost Ten Tribes" - and is foretold to be defeated and deported by that final revival of the Roman Empire forging ahead in Europe today as the "European Union." Such a new European superpower - the United States of Europe - will be led by the Beast, the so-called Anti-Christ.

Shimon Peres Came to Power Over Rabin's Dead Body
Shimon Peres Came to Power Over Rabin's Dead Body
By David Ben-Ariel
I met Yitzhak Rabin in the Israeli Parliament in 1982 during Hanukkah. I was able to talk with him briefly and mention I was associated with Ambassador College in Pasadena, California.
That was a tactful way of saying I'm a Christian since I knew he personally knew Herbert W. Armstrong and the Worldwide Church of God, including the Plain Truth magazine. Herbert Armstrong had formerly presented him with a gift of Steuben crystal.
I was a volunteer at Kibbutz Ramat Yohanan at the time, in Northern Israel near Haifa. Just so happens Yitzhak Rabin had lived there for over a year in the late '50s.
I initially considered Prime Minister Rabin - born in Jerusalem - a traitor for surrendering too much to sworn Arab enemies who had not changed their goal of genocide, only their tactics; for going against clear security concerns he once expressed. (I was in a cafe in Jerusalem when he was shot in Tel Aviv). I refused to attend his funeral, although I had attended the funeral of Meir Kahane, former Israeli parliament member and rabbi, some years before.
Later I found out Yitzhak Rabin was apparently being pressured by the dark powers that be to continue to go against what he knew was wrong and that he resisted and was therefore MURDERED by them for coming to his senses. Shimon Peres came to power over the dead body of Yitzhak Rabin.
I do not believe Yigal Amir murdered Rabin. ( I've met Avishai Raviv several times at demonstrations - he's the government agent provocateur who goaded Yigal Amir to murder Rabin). Yigal Amir is a patsy, the fall-guy, as is thoroughly expounded upon in Who Killed Yitzhak Rabin by Barry Chamish, his first book that broached the subject and clearly indicts the traitor and murderer suspect Shimon Peres (whose Hebrew name appropriately means vulture).
I repeatedly condemn Shimon Peres as a kapo of compromise, a prostitute who serves his German-Jesuit EU masters, a traitor who has sold and is selling out Jews, Jerusalem and Israel and say as much in my book Beyond Babylon: Europe's Rise and Fall. I am on public record against his perfidy and continue to expose him. He was the Bolshevik in charge during my unjust deportation, who was very much aware of an article published in Jerusalem where I mention the EU plans for Jerusalem's occupation.
The Israeli Secret Police (six men interrogated me) had a computer disk with Beyond Babylon on it and said many would read it and examine it during their investigation of me during their wild goose chase. I told them to make sure then Prime Minister Shimon Peres read it.
New evidence further PROVES Yigal Amir did not kill Yitzhak Rabin. It's past time Israelis demand: REOPEN THE RABIN FILE. And now with the release of the Kempler video, many are doing just that!
David Ben-Ariel, a Christian-Zionist writer and author of Beyond Babylon: Europe's Rise and Fall, shares a special focus on the Middle East and great interest in Jerusalem, reflected in hard-hitting articles that help others improve their understanding of that troubled region.

Morrie J. Amitay warns about Jewish liberals
"The real threat to continued strong American public and congressional support for close U.S.-Israel ties comes from anti-Israel bias in the major media, elite universities, and most importantly from ultra-liberal Jewish organizations like Americans for Peace Now and individual Jews who seem to have difficulties dealing with their own Jewishness. These "useful idiots," to borrow Lenin's term, legitimize scurrilous attacks on Israel by its adversaries."

Indian Jewish CONVERTS are not Menashe!

The REAL tribe of Dan is white and European. TRIBE OF DAN
Michael Freund engages in identify theft of Menashe (Manasseh) and perpetuates a fraud when he pretends Indian CONVERTS (at best) are part of the Tribe of Joseph.
Those who are honestly interested in this biblical subject should look NORTH and WEST as the Bible reveals for the "Lost Ten Tribes of Israel" - not to poor Gentiles in Third World countries who are eager to move to a better material world.

One of the cardinal assumptions of Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni was that the world would not recognize a government headed by Hamas. She had been proven wrong, because Mahmoud Abbas has successfully sold the idea to the world, since he is the figurehead leader of that government.

About Kumah and Neo-Zionism
KUMAH, which is Hebrew for ARISE, is a movement passionate about Aliyah (ascent). There are different Aliyahs for different people: for Jews of the Exile, Aliyah means heeding God's call for mass immigration to Israel, the Jewish people's homeland. Aliyah for Jews who have already come home to Israel means elevating the spirit of the Jewish nation and rectifying the vessel that is the State of Israel with an eye toward redemption.
Aliyah for the peoples of the world means a spiritual renaissance with Jerusalem at its center. We call this movement Neo-Zionism, a Biblical dream being realized today. Through an array of projects, Kumah seeks to invigorate the world with positivity and a sense of connectedness based on authentic Jewish values. We at Kumah believe in taking an active role in shaping and hastening the destiny of Israel!

Jews Should Follow Judaism to Israel!
Jews Should Follow Judaism to Israel!
Imagine if America's 5 million plus Jews suddenly decided to follow their religion back to the Jewish homeland, return to Zion, make aliyah ("emmigrate") to the Promised Land of Israel, putting their faith and prayers into practice!
Religious Jews pray daily for the return of the exiles and "Next year in Jerusalem" at Passover. Imagine if American Jewry repented of their hypocritical prayers and put their hearts into such prayers and were moved to actually move to Israel and pray in Jerusalem THIS year!
Imagine if America's many rabbis and Jewish "leaders" would suddenly lead by example and move to the Jewish homeland.
From Israel's national anthem, Ha-Tikvah (the Hope):
As long as deep in the heart,
The soul of a Jew yearns,
And towards the East,
An eye looks to Zion,
Our hope is not lost ...
From the ADL's Yearning for Zion:
The two-thousand-year-old daily prayers continually refer to the return to Zion, such as this one from the thrice-daily silent devotion: "And let our eyes behold Thy return in mercy to Zion. Blessed art Thou, O Lord, who restorest Thy divine presence unto Zion." Among other numerous examples, the return to Zion is included in the grace after meals and Passover Seder tables resonate every year with the refrain "Next Year in Jerusalem."
The seventh blessing of the weekday Amidah prayer is called Ge'ulah ("redemption") and appeals to the LORD for redemption and deliverance.
Behold our affliction and champion our cause, and redeem us speedily for the sake of Thy Name. Blessed are You, Lord, Redeemer of Israel.
The Jewish homeland is today in peril. As Gaza goes (with the illegal expulsion of 8500 Jews from their homes, property and businesses), so goes Israel. Dictator Sharon trampled democracy and despised the Jewish inheritance of the Promised Land of Israel and the defeatist Kadima party continues his Judenrein policies. The secular intensify their campaign to further cut Israelis and Jews off from their Hebrew roots and biblical lands, slitting Israel's throat for sworn enemies who vow genocide against the Jews and plan to pervert Israel into "Palestine!"
Why Do So Many Religious Jews Live in America? is a must read!
I encourage every American Jew to follow their religion back to the Jewish homeland, fulfilling the mitzva (command/good deed) out of loving obedience to our Great Creator God, the God of the Bible, the God of Israel, and empowering themselves to fulfill many more within the Holy Land, and to help save Israel from self-destruction from those anti-democratic and anti-Semitic men and measures with their love of freedom of speech and religion, having been raised in these Lands of the Covenant (the United States/Menashe) to cherish such God given rights.
May faithful Jews not confuse Ersatz New York with Eretz Yisrael! Israel needs American Jews and American Jews need Israel!
Let OPERATION SAVE ISRAEL begin immediately and make history and answer prayers and stop the madness in the Jewish homeland! Such a great influx of American Jews into Eretz Israel could help sweep away the suicidal peace process and restore Israel to its right mind!
Let the blessings begin!
If I am not for myself, who will be for me? If I am not for others, what am I? And if not now, when? ~ Rabbi Hillel -
Nefesh B’Nefesh is committed to help remove the financial, professional, and logistical obstacles that prevent many prospective Olim from fulfilling their dream of Aliyah. In the process, we hope to send an unmistakable signal of Jewish solidarity between Israel and the diaspora and the joint determination to strengthen the State of Israel.

A Jewish Homeland
Did God condemn the Jews to wander until Messiah comes but blessed every other tribe of Israel with a national inheritance? Does that make sense? Is God fair? Is Israel so much holier than Judah? Or could it be, as Herbert W. Armstrong taught in The United States and Britain in Prophecy, that Israel's punishment was to last for 2,520 years (Lev. 26:21)?
After that time, around A.D. 1800, because of Abraham's obedience, God decreed that He would bestow His blessings. Did that 2,520 years of punishment apply only to the Northern Kingdom of Israel? Does God have a double standard? Once God removed the Kingdom of Judah wasn't it His responsibility to restore it at the appointed time?
Did the Anglo-Saxon and European peoples take these prophecies into their own hands? Were they able to create their countries with no divine mandate, signs and miracles, or prophetic leadership?
For those who have eyes to see, the biblical countries came into being by divine mandate since only God determines the rise and fall of nations. Many of our founding fathers were inspired of God, in spite of themselves, to accomplish our Manifest Destiny. God's overall plan is greater than any single man.
God stirred up Theodore Herzl to inspire the Jewish people with the biblical idea of having a Jewish State again. He wrote and spoke about it extensively, planting the seed of holy imagination in Judah's mind.
Later, during the British Mandate, the British began to "look favorably" upon the establishment of an independent Jewish Homeland, watering that holy seed. The Balfour Declaration was part of a divine mandate to restore Judah to "Palestine" (a satanic word the Romans used in an evil attempt to erase our father Israel's name off the map - Ps. 83:4).
God utilized political Zionism for His purposes, just as He utilized America's rebellion against the English throne. On the surface, neither were so special or righteous, but both were instrumental in fulfilling prophecy.
As for the treatment of the former inhabitants of the lands that God decreed for His people, whether Arabs or Indians, I'm sure the Canaanites would offer scathing condemnation but others would see God's purpose being worked out, however imperfectly to limited human vision. God addresses any injustices in His own way and time (2 Sam. 21:1-14), but dismisses those charges that exaggerate or exploit them to deny our basic biblical right to the lands He has chosen for us (Acts 17:26).
As the Greeks are representative of all Gentiles, so the Jews are representative of all Israel. It is to Israel, specifically to the Jews, that God has committed the "oracles of God" (Rom. 3:2). The oracles of God includes the DIVINE COVENANTS AND PROMISES (Rom. 9:4-5). The Jews hold, in trust, the biblical land deed/covenant to the Holy Land for all Twelve Tribes.
GOD MADE A LAND-COVENANT WITH ISRAEL (Gen. 12:7; 13:15; 15:18; 17:8; 26:3; 28:13; 35:12). Not once did God promise the Holy Land to the "Palestinians" so Bible-believers must reject their illegitimate claims. Those who attempt to justify foreign occupation of our land or terrible treatment of our people because of our sins are condemning themselves before God (Isa. 47:6; Jer. 50:7; Zech. 1:15).
There are many Scriptures that speak of a REPRESENTATIVE AMOUNT OF JEWS living in Israel before the return of the King Messiah, Yeshua. Shamefully, God's ministers, and consequently the Church of God, have often been blind to what God is doing in Israel today. We've failed to see the wonders that God has wrought, the types that foretell of greater things to come.
We've been ignorant of the biblical principle of duality and have nit-picked the prophecies demanding all or nothing. With that limited vision we would've argued with Peter on Pentecost/Shavuot about Joel's prophecy being fulfilled. However, it certainly was - in part (Acts 2:16-21).
Consider the following:
God promised to "save Zion, and build the cities of Judah" (Ps. 69:35). (He doesn't refer to them as "Palestinian" cities) God has faithfully done that by rewarding Jewish efforts and respecting their blood, sweat and tears (Isa. 61:4; Ps. 102:13-14). God has used the Jews to make the desert blossom as the rose and protected them during this conversion process, just as Moses requested (Deut. 33:7).
I praise God for having blessed me, from Toledo to Jerusalem, to have lived in eight kibbutzim (collective-farms) throughout Israel that have helped to fulfill these pioneer prophecies, including during Operation Desert Storm.
God clearly prophesied through Zechariah chapters 12-14 that the Jews would again be living in their ancient capital of Jerusalem, with their own rulers, and that the "United Nations" would oppose them and ultimately be defeated.
Zechariah also shows the long-awaited recognition of Yeshua by the Jews as God's Son and Judah's Firstborn and the heartfelt repentance of the political (House of David) and religious (House of Levi) establishment. In fact, Yeshua said that the Jews in Jerusalem wouldn't see Him again until they had this necessary change of heart (Matt. 23:39).
Zechariah also reveals that the Jews would again be a formidable military power in the Middle East with God working in and through and for them. Many Israelis know that God has been their true General and performed many miracles on their behalf. I've heard Gershon Salomon, chairman of the Temple Mount Faithful, recount his miraculous experience of divine protection on the Golan Heights many times.
It's important to note that God has inspired the holy prophets to write about real flesh and blood Jews living in Israel - not Jewish imposters.
Why? Because those suffering from the sickness of anti-Semitism are out to spread doubt and confusion about Israel's Jewish identity. They publish slanderous hate literature attempting to poison minds against the Jews by promoting quack racial theories and Nazi propaganda.
It's nothing less than Satan's desperate efforts to deny that God has the power to fulfill prophecy. Bible-believers reject their bitter lies knowing God's Word is true.
Zechariah also agrees with the New Testament prophecies that reveal Jerusalem as a thriving Jewish city that will suffer under a harsh Gentile occupation just before the Messiah arrives in time (Rev. 11:2; Zech. 14:2).
Yeshua will liberate Jerusalem and secure it as His headquarters. Jerusalem, the site of David's Throne, will be the seat of God's government. Yeshua, like the prophet Daniel, foresaw that Jewish-Christians would be living and working in a Jewish State. They'll witness the historic restoration of animal sacrifices and their abrupt cessation by an evil European force, quickly followed by the "abomination of desolation" that triggers World War III (Matt. 24:15-16; Dan. 12:11).
Meanwhile, the Church of God (or select individuals if the Church continues to shirk its responsibility) must ANNOUNCE TO THE CITIES OF JUDAH (the prophecy doesn't refer to them as "Palestinian" cities or "Israeli-occupied") that Messiah's about to appear!
We're to boldly offer Judah the hope and comfort that a TRUE PEACE is coming and to get ready for it (Isa. 40:1-3). We're to help prepare Israel for the shock of a GLORIFIED YESHUA REVEALED AT LAST (vs. 5) and lead them to expect an audience with a DIVINE KING whose ROYAL RADIANCE will illuminate every nation.
We must identify Yeshua as the "Son of Man" from Heaven that Daniel previewed (Dan. 7:13-14), and stress that Zechariah gave an "eyewitness account" of this same DIVINE SAVIOR descending from Heaven to reign as LORD from Jerusalem over the whole earth (Zech. 14:3-4, 9, 16).
Remember this is no small task, and is quite controversial, since the Jews are still looking forward to a human leader to save them from all their troubles.
The Two Witnesses will be the most influential in reaching the cities of Judah from Jerusalem (Isa. 40:9; 52:7-8), effectively knowing their mindset and culture (unlike so many others), but the Church of God should still do what we can now.
These exciting Scriptures clearly prove (they're not assumptions) that with God nothing is impossible: the Jews would again be living in an independent Israel, resurrected from the dust of history just prior to Messiah's coming, with Jerusalem as their capital, complete with an effective fighting force, having been restored to their ancient cities and energetically transforming the land from barren desert to productive fields - all with God's blessing (Ezek. 37:1-14).
These Scriptures glorify God as faithful and we should praise Him that His Word is good and true. Amen.

Israelis know treacherous Labor Zionists are dangerous liars
Here is a response to Ex-Shabak Chief Ayalon: Har-Shefi Unaware of Rabin Murder Plot from my Israeli friend, Shmuel HaLevi, in Karmiel, Israel:
David Shalom!
It is by now common knowledge that the unJewish system has been brutally persecuting Jews and Christians for many years.
They allowed Arafat to deChristianize Bethlehem and look the other way in Nazareth.
You, yourself, can tell a very clear story on the fact we refer to.
Just a short while ago one Kollek, a purported icon of the early "Jewish agency"... was exposed as being nothing else than a voluntary informer to the British Mandate police against Jewish Patriots. In all probability MANY of the so called "labor Zionists" have been so, if not outright murderers.
With the advent of the Osloid filth, the later day gruesome specimens became "partners" for the Arafat deviant gangs. Not for peace but as a proxy for them to murder Jews.
In that context, why would they not fabricate accusations against Miss Har-Shefi. I know of a new way they use but will for now keep it.
The bottom line is that unless all, ALL of that layer is lanced out of the system and into cells pending a NEW COURTS SYSTEM to take care of them, I would not be surprised if "desaparecidos" also turn out to be the unJews way of silencing the Patriots.
The Pulitzer Prize winner and winning photo is what it is all about. Monstrous degenerates against the Jewish Nation.

Excavating near the Temple Mount isn't worth fighting for. – Anon (popular Israeli sentiment)
Is there not a cause? – David
************************
It's not necessarily that Israel is afraid to be Israel, but rather that they are being themselves - Jacob - and have yet to experience the transformation to Israel, to respond to their higher calling to become a light to all nations, a peculiar people. Sad to say, too many Israelis want to be like the nations.
Presently there isn't sufficient righteousness in Israel to empower and embolden them to fulfill their biblical responsibilities. Many Jews have returned to the Land but not yet to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
Let us hope and pray this shameful situation changes soon so Israel won't have to lose Jerusalem again and suffer under EU occupation.
Proverbs 28:1
The wicked flee when no one pursues, But the righteous are bold as a lion.
The wicked flee when no one pursues, But the righteous are bold as a lion.
Jeremiah 6:16
"Thus saith Yahweh, stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk there in, and ye shall find rest to your souls. But they said, we will not walk therein."
"Thus saith Yahweh, stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk there in, and ye shall find rest to your souls. But they said, we will not walk therein."
Ezekiel 36:24-26
24 For I will take you [Jews and Israelites] from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land. 25 Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.

Shema Bloody Knesset: Break Your Conspiracy of Silence about the Rabin Assassination!
Ezekiel 22
Sins of Jerusalem
1 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 2 "Now, son of man, will you judge, will you judge the bloody city? Yes, show her all her abominations! 3 Then say, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: "The city sheds blood in her own midst... 4 You have become guilty by the blood which you have shed...6 "Look, the princes of Israel: each one has used his power to shed blood in you... 9 In you are men who slander to cause bloodshed... 12 In you they take bribes to shed blood; you take usury and increase; you have made profit from your neighbors by extortion, and have forgotten Me," says the Lord GOD.New evidence further PROVES Yigal Amir did not kill Yitzhak Rabin. It's past time Israelis demand: REOPEN THE RABIN FILE. And now with the release of the Kempler video, many are doing just that!
Yitzhak Rabin was sacrificed by the Israeli oligarchy for their German-Jesuit masters intent on occupying Jerusalem.
